Skills for Change has been helping employers access financial incentives from the Ontario Government to support training of new employees for over 15 years. We understand the financial burden of training new employees.
How Can We Help You?
Employment and Training Incentives for New Employees
To train employees who will be on your payroll and be paid CPP and EI benefits, we offer employment and training incentives based on the:
-
Complexity of the job
-
Skill level required for the job
-
Length of the training, and
-
Skills and experience that the new employee brings.
